Pre- cana

Nelly, on October 5, 2016 at 18:26 Posted in Wedding ceremony 0 9

In Ontario for us to get married in a Catholic Church couples must participate in a Pre- Cana all it really is, is helping couples communicate topics that they might have never discussed before. For instance with us we both come from large families and one question that our priest asked us was how were we going to divide weekends and spend time with families? We had never discussed this before.

Love making was another topic since we are both virgins and inexperienced with anything sexual what happens if one of us has a higher sex drive than the other? How many children will we like to have? How soon after marriage will we be trying to conceive?

Money, finances and household chores also came up, what happens if one of us looses their job would we be able to support the household until they started working? How will we be dividing chores will one of us be responsible for the outdoors and the other for indoors? Or will we be sharing both spaces?

    HI Nelly Smiley heart

    I'm very happy you are enjoying your course!! It's such a great moment to share and discuss together about our views on life. And since you're both from the same faith, that probaly also makes things easier. Smiley smile

    Your ceremony is definitely going to be a big part to incorporate your faith and believes into your wedding. It's amazing that you'll be able to talk about all these on your engagement retreat!! Smiley smile Will you be there with other couples?

    Will you also incorporate traditions from your faith into your reception?
